The growth of an asset is influenced by a variety of parameters. Stability and trust, ironically, often make an asset less exciting.—Bitcoin, for instance, is known for its enterprise-scale institutional adoption, stemming from the trust it has earned as the bedrock of the crypto world. Bitcoin ETFs attracted a fund inflow of US$1 billion within two days of their launch.Although there have been reports of declining search interest and a reduction in general media buzz around the asset, the reasons for this are hardly a cause of concern. All it means is that the stability of the steady returns the…
One of the many Neiro tokens has broken into the top 15 meme coins by market capitalization, as it leaped from $15 million to $352 million in the two days following its listing for spot trading on Binance.

Bitcoin Flounders Ahead of Friday Jobs Report That Might Push Fed to Slash Rates by 50 Basis Points

Economists are forecasting the U.S. to have added 160,000 jobs in August, up from July’s soft 114,000 print. The unemployment rate is seen edging down to 4.2% from 4.3%. While a stronger-than-expected or even in line report is likely to result in the Fed just cutting its benchmark fed funds rate by 25 basis points, a soft number will surely…

As the campaign set this contrast in tone, Bitcoin price went up 11% over the last 30 days, nearly revisiting its March all-time high of $73.7k on Tuesday, now priced at $72k. In the scenario of a Trump…
